Thank you for kindly visiting the Barasat Ashram of Prabhu Jagadbandhusundar!
You are viewing the famous trees what the Bengalees call 'chalta trees' (trees growing green sour fruits) planted in the premises of the ashram (you may have another view of this tree later).
Late SriSri Bandhubilas Brahmachariji
SriSri Prabhu Jagadbandhu Ashram of Barasat, West Bengal was founded in 1958 (year 1364 in Bengali calendar). This means that the ashram is in operation for the past 42 years. SriSri Premdas Brahmachari and SriSri Gopibandhu Brahmachari used to congregate here with SriSri Bandhubilas Brahmachari and many other devotees of Jagadbandhusundar from Calcutta and its suburbs and all parts of West Bengal and India, for continuous Mahanam Kirtan Festivals on many occasions. After Bandhubilasji departed from the earth in the month of April in 1975 (4th Baisakh, 1382 in Bengali calendar), the ashram has been running under the trustee board appointed by late Bandhubilas Brahmachari. The priest of the ashram is Sri Bejoy Das at the present time who is a senior brahmachari. Bandhubilasji's nephew Sri Sankar Bandhu Das has also been very active in the continuity and maintenance of the activities of the ashram todate. The details of the present activities will be put up in an appropriate place of this web site in the future.
Barasat is located about 25 km off Calcutta South Railway Terminal and is connected to the city of Calcutta by electric train running between Calcutta and Bongaon, contiguous to which is a part of Bangladesh. Please have the pleasure to visit SriSri Prabhu Jagadbandhu Ashram of Barasat when you are visting Calcutta and its suburbs next time.
